what you have there is an Epiphyllum hybrid, also known as orchid cacti.

Thanks so much for identifying. I will pass it on. Nice to put a name to it.

Nice pictures. Mine are scraggly because they don't get enough light.

According to my mother, you can eat the flowers of an orchid cactus. :shock:
